Type D design bearings are capable of operating at low to moderate temperatures and heavy loads at relatively high speeds.
Compared to other precision angular contact bearings, theD design bearings have the largest number of balls and ball size.
The other contact fits provide relatively high stiffness and maximum load carrying capacity.
